 From the quaint splendor of the town of Kent in the northwest hills of Connecticut to the great restaurants that dot the shoreline of Westbrook to New Britain’s industrial roots, travel and history author Martin “Marty” Podskoch is hoping to give Connecticut residents a chance to explore every municipality in the State of Conn. with his new book, Connecticut 169 Club: Your Passport and Guide to Exploring Connecticut.

Martin Podskoch, a retired reading teacher from Delhi, NY and now lives in East Hampton, Conn. has compiled interesting information for his new Connecticut Travel Guide Book on the 169 towns, cities and villages in the State of Connecticut in the hopes of encouraging people to visit them all.

“It doesn’t matter what age people are or what means of transportation people use to get there,” the 74-year-old author said. “The whole idea is to get people to see the many beautiful places in our state.”

Podskoch’s work is based on the premise that many people will continually visit one or two places in a state or generally hang out in their town or city, which causes them to miss the beauty and the interesting stories of other places right in their own state.

Podskoch is hoping to replicate the popularity of his idea of traveling to every town, city and village in the State of Conn. with the “Connecticut 169 Club.” Like its predecessor, the book will have a space for journaling and a place to gather a stamp, sticker or signature, from every municipality visited. Podskoch recruited writers, historians, and officials ­from each town and asked them to write a short description about their town’s history, interesting places to visit, and good places to eat.

The reward for visiting all 169 CT towns, cities and villages will be a “Leatherman” patch which commemorates this legendary vagabond, who during the late 1800s wore leather clothes and travelled a 365-mile circuit in approx. 34 days between the Hudson and Connecticut Rivers while camping out in caves.

Podskoch suggests that the whole family, including grandparents, can enjoy the adventure of exploring all 169 Connecticut municipalities together. “Let’s all take the road less traveled,” he said.

Beartown: A Novel by Fredrik Backman

People say Beartown is finished. A tiny community nestled deep in the forest, it is slowly losing ground to the ever-encroaching trees. But down by the lake stands an old ice rink, built generations ago by the working men who founded this town. And in that ice rink is the reason people in Beartown believe tomorrow will be better than today. Their junior ice hockey team is about to compete in the national semi-finals, and they actually have a shot at winning. All the hopes and dreams of this place now rest on the shoulders of a handful of teenage boys.

Being responsible for the hopes of an entire town is a heavy burden, and the semi-final match is the catalyst for a violent act that will leave a young girl traumatized and a town in turmoil. Accusations are made and, like ripples on a pond, they travel through all of Beartown, leaving no resident unaffected.

Beartown explores the hopes that bring a small community together, the secrets that tear it apart, and the courage it takes for an individual to go against the grain. In this story of a small forest town, Fredrik Backman has found the entire world.

Join us for a *new* Daytime Discussion on Monday, January 28 at 10:30am. Socialize and grab a cup of tea, coffee or hot cocoa before sitting down and reflecting on Fredrik Backman's "A Man Called Ove".

Book Introduction: Meet Ove. He’s a curmudgeon—the kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. People call him “the bitter neighbor from hell.” Behind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness. So when one November morning a chatty young couple with two chatty young daughters move in next door and accidentally flatten Ove’s mailbox, it is the lead-in to a comical and heartwarming tale of unkempt cats, unexpected friendship, and the ancient art of backing up a U-Haul. All of which will change one cranky old man and a local residents’ association to their very foundations.

Pick up your copy at the Circulation Desk after December 30, 2019. Large print format available.

Follow along with Bob Ross to create a lovely scene with happy little trees!   All materials provided.  Space is limited, so registration is required by calling 860-583-4467 or stopping by the reference desk on your next library visit.

Where the crawdads sing by Delia Owens

For years, rumors of the "Marsh Girl" have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself to a new life--until the unthinkable happens.

Perfect for fans of Barbara Kingsolver and Karen Russell, Where the Crawdads Sing is at once an exquisite ode to the natural world, a heartbreaking coming-of-age story, and a surprising tale of possible murder. Owens reminds us that we are forever shaped by the children we once were, and that we are all subject to the beautiful and violent secrets that nature keeps.

The Art of Racing in the Rain: A Novel by Garth Stein

Enzo knows he is different from other dogs: a philosopher with a nearly human soul (and an obsession with opposable thumbs), he has educated himself by watching television extensively, and by listening very closely to the words of his master, Denny Swift, an up-and-coming race car driver.

Through Denny, Enzo has gained tremendous insight into the human condition, and he sees that life, like racing, isn't simply about going fast. On the eve of his death, Enzo takes stock of his life, recalling all that he and his family have been through.

A heart-wrenching but deeply funny and ultimately uplifting story of family, love, loyalty, and hope, The Art of Racing in the Rain is a beautifully crafted and captivating look at the wonders and absurdities of human life ... as only a dog could tell it.
